The moment I first heard this song when it was released a week ago, this video demanded to be made. This is an AMV set to the song "Anthem of the Angels" from Breaking Benjamin's new CD "Dear Agony," and it uses footage from Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core and Advent Children Complete. It portrays Cloud mourning the loss of his mentor and brother in arms Zack Fair, and his struggles to overcome his grief and draw strength from the memory of Zack's courage to keep fighting no matter how great the odds. The lyrics of this song are absolutely perfect for the theme, and are especially fitting with the reoccurring "angel" motif present through the FF7 saga.
This video marks the latest in my series of FF7 videos, and my first AMV rendered in full HD (made possible by the recently released Advent Children Complete Edition).
LYRICS
White walls surround us
No light will touch your face again
Rain taps the window
As we sleep among the dead
Days go on forever
But i have not left your side
We can chase the dark together
If you go then so will I
There is nothing left of you
I can see it in your eyes
Sing the anthem of the angels
And say the last goodbye
Cold light above us
Hope fills the heart
And fades away
Skin white as winter
As the sky returns to gray
Days go on forever
But I have not left your side
We can chase the dark together
If you go then so will I
There is nothing left of you
I can see it in your eyes
Sing the anthem of the angels
And say the last goodbye
I keep holding onto you
But I can't bring you back to life
Sing the anthem of the angels
Then say the last goodbye
You're dead alive (x4)
There is nothing left of you
I can see it in your eyes
Sing the anthem of the angels
And say the last goodbye
I keep holding onto you
But I can't bring you back to life
Sing the anthem of the angels
And say the last goodbye
Sing the anthem of the angels
And say the last goodbye
